The Greatest Games
The best games each sport has produced, gathered in one place. NFL, NBA and MLB games are ranked by Game Score; hockey joins through every game at which the Stanley Cup was physically awarded.

How Game Score works
Every postseason game earns a Game Score from its stakes, the teams' quality, and how close it was.
How this is measured
Within each league, every postseason game earns a Game Score that blends how much was at stake (round and seeding), how good the two teams were (rating), and how close and consequential the game itself turned out to be. The result is a single number that lets a first-round upset and a Game 7 classic sit on the same ladder. The catch is that those numbers are calibrated per sport, so a 3.6 in baseball is not the same currency as a 3.6 in basketball. Hockey is a different case again: the data here is the roll of Stanley Cup presentation games rather than a scored ranking. A unified, normalized board that ranks across all four is the next build, not a claim this page makes yet. Methodology.
Club Football
Every top-flight league match, UEFA match and major domestic cup since 1871, ranked by Game Score.
How this is measured
Some 260,000 matches in all, ranked by a Game Score of closeness, stakes, quality and upset over one unified club Elo. Second legs are scored on the aggregate tie, league stakes come from the live table, and a starred row is a curated all-time classic whose model score shows on hover. The home side is listed first; neutral venues and two-legged ties are marked on each row.

What's next
This is the v0. The board is meant to grow along two axes:
- A unified, searchable ranking. One normalized Game Score scale across sports, with search and filters, so the single greatest games of all-time can be ranked head to head rather than league by league.
- More depth per club.Club and International Football now have their boards; the next step is each club's own greatest games on its team page, from the same per-team data already emitted.
Game Score and game data are maintained per league in the MetroAreas workbook and emitted to each sport's data files at build time. Hockey shows Stanley Cup presentation games rather than a scored ranking.
